non-allergic food intolerance testing Explanation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_intolerance http://www.allergyuk.org/allergy_foodtest.aspx -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 13 min (2009-10-28 13:39:39 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- 'Food intolerance' (more correctly called non-allergic hypersensitivity) can have a number of different causes such as low levels of digestive enzymes, or heightened sensitivity to natural substances present in foods (such as caffeine, salicylates or histamine). The variation in the cause of food intolerance from person-to-person means that there is no one test to identify all types of food intolerance. Elimination and challenge diets, carried out under the supervision of a suitable qualified person, are the most accurate test. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 17 min (2009-10-28 13:43:40 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Adverse reactions to foods may be classified as due to either true food allergy or non-allergic food intolerance. In contrast, food aversion refers to symptoms that are often non-specific and unconfirmed by double blind, placebo controlled food challenge. http://www.bmj.com/cgi/content/extract/316/7140/1299 |

test for non-immune food intolerance reactions Explanation: The non-immune food reactions are usually caused by the absence of specific chemicals or enzymes needed to digest a food substance. For example, lack of the enzyme lactase causes lactose intolerance and lactose intolerance is a type of non-immune food intolerance. There is no single test that can identify all of the non-immune food intolerance reactions. These reactions are usually discovered by a process of elimination. www.allergysmarts.com/...food.../what-is-a-food-intolerance... - -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2009-10-28 16:56:34 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- неспецифическим путем – без участия иммунной системы |

non-specific (food) intolerance test for certain foods Explanation: As I understand it, the specific target (e.g., milk proteins vs dairy fat) or mechanism of the intolerance is not determined. Given the fact that it is followed by "for certain foods", you need not necessarily say "food intolerance" in this case. HTH |
